Nationalist Party deputy leader calls for help from Metsola

Mar 27 2022

Posting to Twitter, Nationalist Party Deputy leader Robert Arrigo seemed to be calling out to Roberta Metsola to be the future of Malta and the Opposition.

Roberta Metsola had been once pinpointed as a future potential leader for the party. However, her most recent achievement of being elected European Parliament President faded this dream away.

Please help us roberta

— Robert Arrigo (@RobertArrigo1) March 27, 2022

Posting onto Twitter, the politician wrote ‘Please help us Roberta’, indicating both a hope for Metsola to return but also cracks in the Nationalist Party.

The recent tweet indicated a lack of faith in the Nationalist Party leadership. This comes as Bernard Grech promised to stay on as leader for the Opposition if he is given trust by the party.

Robert Abela addresses sea of Labour supporters from party headquarters in Ħamrun

Mar 27 2022

In his first address following today’s Labour Party election win, Prime Minister Robert Abela stated that the people have chosen for Malta to keep moving forward.

Addressing the crowds from the Labour Party headquarters alongside wife Dr. Lydia Abela, daughter Giorgia Mae and multiple Labour Party candidates and executive members, Abela stated that the past 5 years included credible results and obstacles but today’s result gives them the strength to “return to work with the humility that characterises the Labour leadership.”

Abela stated that the country needs everyone to move forward and will continue to pursue those who chose not to vote, reiterating Labour’s commitment to elevate the country’s standards and remove all arrogance from the country.

During his first mandate, Abela aims to usher in a new phase where Malta continues to the good which has been already established, calling upon the people to contribute to the implementation of Labour’s manifest to turn the 1,000 proposals into 1,000 goals.
